Happy Mother’s Day from Warehouse Workers United

May 13, 2012 by dean

Martha Medina is a mother and a warehouse worker in San Bernardino, California.

Here is her Mother’s Day message:

“I came to this country to help support my mother. From the second you first open your eyes as a newborn you see your mother. She gives you the strength and wisdom to live. Now I support my mother and my two sons as well as my nieces and nephews.

“It hasn’t been easy. Temperatures inside the warehouse are high, there is a lot of pressure to work fast, conditions are dangerous and pay is low. Our work is unreliable. I worked through my pregnancy with my second child. There was no respect for my pregnancy and I was constantly worried.

“Pero Madres Son Luchadores, Como Yo.”

Victory! Santos Rehired!

August 29, 2011 by dean

Over 3,300 of you signed the petition to tell Walmart subcontractor NFI to rehire Santos after he was fired for speaking out about the dangerous conditions in his workplace. Thank you for your support! Although workers have been intimidated, they continue in their struggle to make Inland Empire warehouses safe places to work. This illustrates the power we can have when we are organized, we can do it together!
